Programs that inspire hope and dignity
At Myra’s Heart & Hope Foundation, our programs are the heart of our mission, built on compassion and Myra's legacy. We meet immediate needs and restore hope, ensuring every person we serve feels seen, valued, and never alone. Discover how we empower our community.
Our core programs
We offer a range of specialized services tailored to uplift individuals and families facing hardship. Our approach focuses on understanding and responding to the unique needs within our community, providing effective and practical solutions with a personal touch.
Community outreach
Through monthly meal outreach for the unhoused and hygiene kit distributions, we provide essential support and human connection to those most vulnerable.
Youth & family support
We invest in children with backpack and school supply drives, alongside holiday food assistance and seasonal support for families struggling with increased financial strain.
Seasonal & wellness initiatives
From winter coat drives to awareness initiatives for caregivers impacted by Parkinson’s and chronic illness, we support well-being throughout the year.
The Myra's heart & hope difference
What makes Myra’s Heart & Hope Foundation unique is that our programs are rooted in personal experience, compassion, and dignity—not just service. Inspired by Myra’s own journey of resilience through Parkinson’s disease, we lead with empathy, understanding, and human connection, ensuring help feels personal, not transactional.
Meeting immediate needs
Our community meal and hygiene outreach programs primarily serve individuals experiencing homelessness and food insecurity by providing nourishment, basic necessities, and human connection. We meet people where they are, offering support in ways that make individuals feel seen, valued, and respected.
Investing in the next generation
Our school supply and backpack drives focus on children from low-income households to ensure they have the tools needed to succeed academically with confidence and dignity. We empower the next generation to thrive and remind them that their future is bright.
